We went to Wearable Con, and build your own Arduino proximity sensor.
Although the show is no longer in production, you can enjoy episodes from the TWiT Archives.
How devices are powered wirelessly, wearable HD display, build an Arduino proximity sensor to avoid running into people, quick 3D prototyping, and flexible circuit boards.
Pokemon Stop: Part I
Project Overview:
What the easiest way to get hurt playing Pokemon? By walking into things as you travel with your head in your phone.
- We're going to help you avoid walking into windows, glass doors, telephone poles, people, and potentially body-breaking traffic.
Parts List:
- Arduino (I'd suggest a Mini or Nano) ~$2-3
- Ultrasonic Sensor (HC-SR04) ~$1
- Motor Shaker
Here's the Software:
